Culinary experiences in Birmingham

Upon entering the Tipu Sultan, one is immediately captivated by the lavish design. The interior is a feast for the eyes: hand-carved wood, sparkling chandeliers, and marble accents give the room a palatial atmosphere. An impressive staircase leads to the upper area, where an elegant banquet suite is located, used for private events such as weddings or corporate functions. The ground floor offers a mix of intimate seating areas and generous tables, creating an inviting yet luxurious atmosphere. The attention to detail – from the lighting to the plush cushions – emphasizes the aim to provide a truly "majestic" experience.

Tipu Sultan restaurant reviews

Culinarily, the Tipu Sultan focuses on the flavors of northwestern Pakistani cuisine, known for its spice and freshness. The dishes are prepared with high-quality ingredients and traditional spices that take the palate on a journey through the region. A definite highlight is the "Sultani Chops" – succulent lamb chops cooked on an open grill and enhanced with a secret spice blend, giving them an unparalleled depth of flavor. Also popular is the "Hyderabadi Lamb Handi," a rich dish of tender lamb slow-cooked in a spicy sauce, often described as a culinary masterpiece. For poultry lovers, the "Murgh Haryali Tikka" adds a fresh touch – chicken marinated with mint, spinach, and coriander, grilled over charcoal and boasting a vibrant green color.

Exquisite Pakistani cuisine at high level

The restaurant places a great emphasis on communal dining, as seen in offerings such as the "Sultani Meat Platter" – a selection of grilled meats perfect for groups, showcasing the diversity of the cuisine. Vegetarians are also well catered for: the "Paneer Tikka Masala" combines homemade cheese with a creamy, spicy sauce and is often praised for being equally satisfying as the meat dishes. The sides, such as the fluffy "Tandoori Naans" fresh from the clay oven, complement the main dishes perfectly and are known for their crispy texture. As the Tipu Sultan abstains from alcohol, the experience is rounded off with a selection of refreshing mocktails and traditional drinks like "Mango Lassi" that enhance the flavors of the dishes.

Luxury restaurant with banquet suite

The service is another plus point: the staff is often praised for their friendliness and professionalism, with waiters not only working quickly and efficiently, but also happy to explain the background of the dishes. The kitchen is partially open, allowing guests to watch the preparation, strengthening trust in the freshness and quality of the ingredients. There is occasional criticism of the noise level, especially when the restaurant is busy, or the spiciness of some dishes that may not suit every palate – but the majority of visitors appreciate this intensity.

Compared to other similar restaurants in birmingham, this one is pretty average, nothing special about the food compared to the prices they charge which are excessive. I was especially disappointed with my chaunsa mocktail, it was just mango juice from a carton, however the mixed berries mocktail had bit more effort put into it

Food was average and service was just plain bad. Slow and incompetent. I’ve been here many times but this time was awful with the window cleaner still cleaning and not being attended to when we were one of two tables there. Food wait time was 30 minutes ridiculous. And after complaining there was resolution offered.

Disappointed that tap water is no longer offered(previously did) clearly profits are put ahead of good customer care. We had a family function and spent almost £30-40 on just water. It's not cheap taking your family out prices have gone up everywhere but restaurants who refuse tap water to customers when infact it can easily be offered are clearly intetested in making money. We won't be returning any time soon for our family functions . Many restaurants out there who still put customer experience and value for money before profits.

Took a while for the food to arrive, but delicious and fresh as always! Update: Revisited over a year later today. The service has deteriorated further. Tipu Sultan's manager believes they can lack in customer service and are exempt of all negligences when they are busy, that is the excuse used for any mishap. If they are busy they will not let you have your starters and mains all served together. Some waiters have no manners whatsoever and behave as though they're doing you a favour. Our waiter in particular thought it's a good gesture of customer service to just place the receipt on the table without notification and leave; with no book to enclose cash nor asked if we want to use card. We had to pay by asking another waiter who was well mannered. The previous rude waiter who was assigned to our table then decided to shout and call us from the back, as we were heading out, (10 mins after he had left us with the receipt) "SIR DID YOU PAY???" We also witnessed customers leaving their seats and asking waiters where their maincourses are, after having waited for over 30-40 minutes. This seems like a regular issue that Tipu's seem to have become rather comfortable with. Another point to note is the small amount of meat in their curries. Be prepared to have ample sauce and 3 pieces of meat/chicken. The manager and waiters need a lesson on how to treat customers.

UPDATE- Outrageous service when asked for tap water needed for my meds. “ We don’t give tap water” What restaurant doesn’t give a glass of water!!!!!!! 💦 Thank god they don’t charge for using the toilet or washing hands… OR IS THAT NEXT!!!! 2nd visit here with the family. Service was very quick, friendly and a large variety of dishes on the menu. All arrived at the same time as requested with the food all hot. Great place for real authentic asian food BUT NOT FOR TAP WATER 💦

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Toba Sultan, and I must say, it was an exceptional experience from start to finish! Food (10/10): The food was simply outstanding! Every dish was bursting with rich flavors and perfectly balanced spices. The meats were incredibly tender and juicy, while the rice was fragrant and cooked to perfection. The presentation was also top-notch, making the meal as visually appealing as it was delicious. Service (10/10): The staff were extremely friendly, professional, and attentive. They made sure we were comfortable, checked on us regularly without being intrusive, and provided excellent recommendations. The service was fast, yet everything was prepared with great care. Ambiance (10/10): The restaurant’s atmosphere was warm and inviting, with elegant décor and a relaxing vibe. The attention to detail in the design made the dining experience even more enjoyable. Overall, Toba Sultan exceeded my expectations in every way. If you’re looking for an unforgettable dining experience with exceptional food and top-tier service, this place is a must-visit! I’ll definitely be coming back again soon.
